The recent discovery of superconductivity above 200 K in hydrogen sulfide under high pressure marks a milestone in superconductor research. Not only does its critical temperature T-c exceed the previous record in cuprates by more than 50 K, the superconductivity in hydrogen sulfide also exhibits convincing evidence that it is of conventional phonon-mediated type. Moreover, this is the first time that a previously unknown high-T-c superconductor is predicted by theory and afterwards verified by experiment. In this Minire-view, we survey the progress made in the last three years in understanding this novel material, and discuss unsolved problems and possible developments to encourage future investigations.
